"The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep," Obama cautioned. Young and charismatic but with little experience on the national level, Obama smashed through racial barriers and easily defeated ...

<quoted text>So what does it matter when? The bottom line is that gays and lesbians are citizens and deserve the same rights as every other citizen in this country. What part of equal rights and protections under the law don't you understand?

What is your logic for approving homosexual marriage, but opposing plural marriage?

<quoted text>Nobody commits suicide because they want to be one sexual orientation or the other you vomitous cretin. Gay teens commit suicide because of the bullying they put up with at the hands of kids who are raised by ignorant pieces of fecal matter like you.

Homosexual teens commit suicide because they are deeply conflicted individuals who recognize that they do not fit in society.

The Left Says Your Children Belong To ThemIn a 30-second promo for MSNBC’s Lean Forward campaign, Dr. Melissa Harris-Perry advocates that society end the “private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their families,” and instead institute a “collective notion” that kids “are our children,” they belong to the community.In the MSNBC advertisement, Perry says,“We have never invested as much in public education as we should have because we’ve always had kind of a private notion of children: your kid is yours and totally your responsibility. We haven’t had a very collective notion of these are our children.”*****These people are f**king scary.

Ayn Rand, creator of the philosophy of Objectivism, on collectivism.

"Collectivism means the subjugation of the individual to a group. Throughout history, no tyrant ever rose to power except on the claim of representing the common good. Horrors which no man would dare consider for his own selfish sake are perpetrated with a clear conscience by altruists who justify themselves by the common good."

...Enter North Korea and "collective punishment" enslaving hundreds of thousands of citizens in prison camps, including children.

In short, if you're a conservative, isn't the point of an election to win, so you can bend the world to your will, no matter the means it takes to get there? Even if you don't necessarily have the majority's support?

Absolutely not.

Conservatives believe in the supremacy of the individual over the state, while the left wants to submerge individuality to serve the state.

<quoted text>Couldn't sleep again, pig?Maggie "milk snatcher" Thatcher was one of the most reviled PM's Britain has ever suffered through. Here, pig, is just one of her miraculous accomplishments.As prime minister, Thatcher battled the country's recession by initially raising interest rates to control inflation. She was best known for her destruction of Britain's traditional industries through her attacks on labor organizations such as the miner's union, and for the massive privatization of social housing and public transport. One of her staunchest allies was U.S. President Ronald Reagan, a fellow conservative. The two shared similar right-wing, pro-corporate political philosophies.You are a consistent, fat, diseased echo chamber though. I will give you that. Because of that rapacious b!tch, England will likely never elect another female PM.

Yes, it was really terrible of Prime Minister Thatcher to allow people to own their own homes instead of renting from the government.

All Americans would prefer to live in government housing projects and be relieved of the burden of home ownership. Just sit back and do drugs instead of mowing the lawn.

<quoted text>Let's try again:I'd like to ask all the delusional, gullible, tea-party-led wackadoos who pretend Obama is taking over: how do you feel about the only ACTUAL 'taking over' that has already happened in real life - where Republicans took over entire cities in Michigan, including Detroit? Where they can and have dismissed peoples' votes by dismissing elected officials and appointing new ones?That's what takeover looks like. I'm sure you're all upset about that, right?

I have to conclude you're being facetious. There's one glaring similarity common to Detroit and the rest of our failing metropolitan areas: they are and have historically been, controlled by Democrats.

Your insistence on calling yourself "Independent" is a joke - like Jesse Jackson calling himself an albino.
